We left Salt Lake City and drove down towards I-70 to drive to Littleton, CO, making sure I had a full tank of gas before I got on it because there are no services for over a hundred miles on the western side of I-70. It was another truly beautiful drive, with just breathtaking scenery around every corner. We stopped at the San Rafael Swell and spent some time taking pictures. From there, we just continued to drive and go WOW!! around every bend in the road. As we got into the more eastern part of Utah then we started getting [View Full Entry]

After a quick visit to Mesa Verde, we headed north to check out Arches and Canyonlands National Parks. It's probably the hottest it's been yet during the trip...almost 100 every day! It's amazing to see all the arches and towering rocks, especially since they were all carved out by the weather and erosion over a really long time. Delicate Arch was a great site, and much bigger than we realized. We also were able to hike around and see the Landscape and Double O arches as well as Balanced Rock, just to name a few. Canyonlands was pretty interesting too. Our [View Full Entry]

Nu har vi spenderet et par dage i mormonernes hovedstad, og skal nu videre paa vores tur. Salt Lake City er en lidt underlig by, hvor centrum egentlig ligner en storby,men alt foregaar totalt stille og roligt, og alt er voldsomt rent og paent alle steder. Der har ikke vaeret saa meget at se her i byen, hvilket passede os fint, da vi bare gerne ville holde lidt "ferie" og slappe af...hvilket vi gjorde med to biografture! Og saa har Dennis faaet skaffet sig en PSP, saa vi nu skulle kunne komme paa nettet paa alle de wifi hotspots der er [View Full Entry]

Escaping from Reno with my bundles of newly won loot I carried on east on I80 with only a mere 800+km ahead of me to get to Salt Lake city. I love cruise control. Which also highlights how some people seem to hate being overtaken. I had a classic example of this today with a chubby middle aged guy in an ordinary sedan with an ordinary chubby wife and the chubby kids in the back seat. Over the period of the morning and into the early afternoon I was cruising with the cruise control set at 80mph and during this time [View Full Entry]

We left the craziness of Las Vegas behind and started our journey around the States. We headed first of all to Zion National Park. The prices of accommodation anywhere near the parks are really expensive and outside of the cities there are very few hostels, so we stayed in a small town, called Hurricane, about 20 miles down the road from Zion. We stayed around Zion for 3 days and enjoyed a few hikes around the spectacular canyon, with its multi coloured cliffs. The canyon was carved by the Virgin River, and the cliffs are made up of different sedimentary layers [View Full Entry]

After our tiring 3 hour hike to Angel's Landing, we decided to take the shuttle to the lodge for lunch. After some souvenier shopping and refilling the water bottles, we talked the boys into one more short hike to the Emerald Pools. After we finished that hike it was about 3:30 and HOT, so we went back to camp and went swimming. This was the first day we used the air conditioning in the RV. Saturday morning we got up at 6:30 to get a couple last short hikes in before leaving for Salt Lake City. We hiked to Weeping Rock [View Full Entry]

We chose the hike up to Angel's Landing as our first hike of the day. It was a steep and winding 2 miles up the side of a cliff, then through a cool narrow ravine before going higher up to a plateau. There was an additional half mile of treacherous rock climbing with chain railings for support, that took you to the tippy top of the mountain ridge. Nothing for the faint of heart or for anyone with fear of heights. Amy and Drew made it a quarter of the way before turning back. Bob and Ben went the entire route, [View Full Entry]
